(My mind races. I think yeah it would be nice. This is the longest I have been single . Over three years since the break up of my eleven year relationship with Gary and over a year and half since my last steady boyfriend that I dated. )

Me: ” I guess it would be nice.”

My daughter: ” You deserve that Dad. Love and someone that cares about you.”

( My heart melts as the voice and the love of my daughter impacts me. I deserve love.)

Me: “I love you, sweetie. ”
